Release date: Not yet released
Here is the full list of fixed issues in 1.9.5.
Highlights
- MDL-18083 - Gradebook improvements
- MDL-17074 - Course default settings: Now it's possible to specify some defaults to be applied on interactive course creation. Note this feature is one subset of the more complete defaults available in Moodle 2.0.
- MDL-17144 - New Spam cleaner report
- MDL-18468 - New setting in Administration > Miscellaneous > Experimental for checking course backup files for XML errors and splitting into smaller parts for use in the restore process. This will result in improvements to restore robustness and execution times, particularly for medium to large course backups.

Known problems and regressions
Changes in Moodle API
- MDL-18066: The import_backup_file_silently() has been modified, so it doesn't provide automatic administrator credentials anymore. The (custom) caller functions have the responsibility of doing that. This change only affects to 3rd part code using the function, core doesn't use it at all.
- MDL-18542: (Database Activity). The data_field_base class has been modified. A new method, list_add_field(&$fields) has been added. The single parameter is an array to which the form field name(s) for that database field are added. There is only a requirement to override this for field types that have multiple parts (see the data_field_date class for an example - date has three parts day/month/year).
